    Re: Topwater frogs??????

    You all should try the Snag Proof Frogs in my opinion much more durable better hook sets and hooks!!!

    You have to give them a couple seconds to inhale it - don't set the hook on the strike, but instead count 1, 2, kapow!

    Once they're hooked, you just winch them in and never give them any slack.

    I use the SPRO Bronzeeye (not the Jr.) religiously on the grass matts, and it works well...very well! Even the Chain Pickerel like that thing - and they usually scare the heck out of me with their strikes!

    What kind of retreive do you use. Pop, twitch, walk the dog, or what?
    I don't have a lot of luck on that type cause i don't have a retreive that I am confident in. I use the paddle tail type with good luck but, all I do is real them in, through places I can't get a buzzbait.

    i cast out and let it set there for about 10 sec the reel it about a foot and watch about a 4 foot circle around it for about 10 sec if u c any movement twitch it a few time but dont move it far and pause it again and repeat if that aint workin i real it about hafe way and let it sit and bring it to the edge of the weed and off that a few inches some time they will not hit it in the weeds or grass mats but will nail it on the edge

    I use the Bronzeye Jr. on the mat exclusively, the reg. Bronzeye is to heavy and it plows the mat too much. The best retrieve for me is steady short twitch with the rod tip down, no slack. When you gets to an open hole, pause it for a second or two like the others have said. If you have a large open area, speed up the retrieve. Make it looks like the frog is trying to get to the next mat for safety. Also, do this from the edge of the mat to half way to the boat. Generally, fast twitch for open water. There is nothing better then frog fishing in my book, I got one tied on year round.

    Tim,
    I have but they don't look as good to me. I think Zoom did it right with their action of the legs. I know the others catch fish but I love them Zooms!

    Will do. I have seen you out several times if you are the house with the ramp and the pontoon. I have caught some decent fish off your bank at night. You have a great little honey hole!!
